The apparatus and method for packaging coiled materials uses vacuum to draw the free end of a packaging sleeve through the open coil core, which may have a single line. A trolley lifts the coil to align its open core with a hollow mandrel, and passes the coil over the mandrel. The trolley is lowered to expose the coil circumference for packaging. Suction is applied through the mandrel to draw the free end of the sleeve through the coil core. Another apparatus includes two parallel input lines and a mandrel workstation translating therebetween and pivoting to transfer coils to an orthogonal output line. Another apparatus includes a stationary suction source having a flexible suction hose and suction canister extending therefrom. The canister is applied to the coil core to draw the free end of the sleeve therethrough.

A machine for packaging flexible hoses in a plastic film has a packaging station provided with an operating device for imparting to a coil of flexible hose a rotary motion around a rotation axis, and an orienting device for imparting to the plastic film an oscillatory motion around a fulcrum axis substantially transverse to the rotation axis of the coil.

Disclosed is a coil packaging system. The system comprises a first robot arm having a grappling portion adapted to grip a wrapping material, a second robot arm having a grappling portion adapted to grip the wrapping material, and a coil rotating means adapted to carry and rotate a coil about a coil axis. The first robot arm is movable along a first horizontal axis (A1) which, in an operating position, coincides with the coil axis, while the second robot arm is movable along a second horizontal axis (A2), the second horizontal axis (A2) being parallel to the first horizontal axis (A1), and along a third horizontal axis (A3), the third horizontal axis (A3) being perpendicular to the second horizontal axis (A2).

An apparatus for wrapping a wrapping material, which is arranged to run around a wrapping track, includes an assembly and a discharge arrangement at least partly fitted to the assembly for a wrapping-material source. The discharge arrangement includes a support-element arrangement for the wrapping-material source, from which the wrapping material is arranged to be discharged, and drive means arranged to act on the wrapping-material source, in order to maintain the tension in the wrapping material that is discharged from the wrapping-material source. The tension of the wrapping material, from which a tension value as a source of feedback is provided to the drive means, is detected from the discharge arrangement. In addition, a method and system for wrapping a wrapping material, a wrapping device and a control unit are disclosed.

Method of coiling a flexible elongate element (64) inside a container (80A) made from a flexible sheet material wherein at least part of the sheet material is tensioned by establishing a pressure differential between an inner surface (100) and an outer surface (92) of the sheet material and the flexible elongate element (64) is directed onto the tensioned sheet material to form a hole (98), the flexible elongate element being then fed through the hole to form a coil inside the container.
